Xi Rui and the emperor's uncle sat in a private room drinking.

The emperor's uncle kept instilling his hobbies in Xi Rui.

Xi Rui dealt with it on the surface, but rolled his eyes in his heart.

Xi Rui curled his lips and said, "These men all look effeminate."

The uncle raised his eyebrows, "You haven't even grown all your hair yet, so who are you calling effeminate?"

Xi Rui did not mention Xiao Yuanshi at the beginning, but praised several palace guards.

These people's families all have backgrounds, but he knows them all and has a good relationship with them, so even if the news gets out, he will just treat it as a joke.

The uncle laughed, "Then you should give up this idea as soon as possible. I haven't heard that there is any problem with these people."

He pointed to the sky and said, "And if you dare to move, your uncle will not forgive you."

The Queen Mother was the sister of Duke Xi, and the Emperor was Xi Rui's cousin.

This little dandy has a sweet mouth and can not only please the empress dowager, but also the emperor.

Otherwise, if the princess's hair had been burned, someone else would have died several times, but this guy is still alive and well.

Xi Rui sneered, "I didn't intend to touch them in the first place."

He leaned close to the emperor's uncle's ear and whispered, "By the way, I heard something. It is said that Xiao Yuanshi is the same as you in secret."

The uncle was stunned, "Is it true? It doesn't look like it!"

Xi Rui said: "According to reliable information, it is true."

"And do you know why he didn't take a concubine? It was actually to cover it up."

The uncle said unconvincedly: "I haven't heard that he has close contact with anyone outside!"

Xiao Yuanshi is handsome and elegant, with a good appearance and temperament.

He used to just watch and admire it, but didn't think much of it.

Although he is an old playboy, he still has principles in doing things and never forces anyone.

Otherwise, he would have been called into the palace and scolded by the emperor.

Xi Rui knew that he would not believe it, so he lied with a mysterious look on his face, "I heard that the target is Ge Chunyi. Of course, others can't tell."

This is the rumor Liang Youxiao asked him to spread...

"Didn't you see that he didn't support anyone in the Xiao family, but helped his brother-in-law the most?"

"He is so nice to his brother-in-law. Would you be so nice to your brother-in-law?"

The old dude has a wife.

The uncle was shocked. "Ah, so it's related to that pretty boy?"

Xiao Yuanshi has indeed been training his brother-in-law. If you don’t know, you might think he is his real brother.

The emperor's uncle himself had a rather cold relationship with his elder and younger brothers-in-law, and the relationship was not even very harmonious.

So he suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Xiao Yuanshi.

If it were someone else, they would definitely not believe it, but the emperor's uncle took him to see it, and he believed it.

Xi Rui: “…” I just said that and you actually believed it.

Forget it, the explanation I originally made up below is no longer useful.

"I have a servant in my family, and one of his relatives works in the general's mansion. The rumor should be correct."

The uncle touched his chin and sighed, "No wonder I haven't heard of it."

Xi Rui saw that something was going to happen, so he leaned over and said, "I heard today that his brother-in-law had his legs chopped off."

Hearing this news, he felt very relieved. He didn't know who did such a good thing to get rid of harm for the people!

In the past, when Ge Chunyi was in the academy, he always didn't get along with these playboys. He acted as if they had eaten his rice and looked at them as if they were rice bugs.

If Ge Chunyi didn't have Xiao Yuanshi's support, he would be nothing.

He made up a lie: "The general is in a bad mood now, so the time is right for him to strike."

The uncle looked at Xi Rui with a half-smile, "I heard that you and Xiao Yuanshi have always been at odds, and you even broke his brother-in-law's hand not long ago."

In fact, few of the dandies who are able to get along well in the capital and live a leisurely and happy life are really stupid.

They all have their own way of survival. They know clearly who to offend and who not to offend, what can be done and what cannot be done.

The current emperor is a wise ruler who works hard to govern the country. If the emperor's uncle behaves recklessly and abducts men and women from the people all day long, even if we don't kill him because of our past relationship, we will never forgive him.

This brat keeps instigating me, and his purpose is not simple.

Xi Rui did not hide it, "Yes, I have a grudge against Xiao Yuanshi and his brother-in-law."

"So I'm happy to see Xiao Yuanshi get humiliated."

No one is stupid, and it would be pointless to hide things.

He had this purpose in mind.

The emperor's uncle was somewhat tempted.

He shook his head. "Xiao Yuanshi won't agree."

You can tell at a glance that person has a strong personality and a strong sense of self-esteem.

Xi Rui smiled and said, "Liang Youxiao brought back a bottle of medicine from another place."

"If it succeeds, it was Xiao Yuanshi's initiative. It has nothing to do with you."

"Then you will be the victim."

This trick was taught to him by Liang Youxiao, who asked him to teach his uncle the emperor. It was a way of confusing right and wrong.

It is said that the guy saw others doing this and learned it.

He felt that this move was particularly perfect and could take them all out.

The emperor's uncle smiled deeply, "You are a very bad boy!"

But he liked this bad idea.

Even if the matter comes to the emperor, he can still speak as a victim.

The main reason was that Xiao Yuanshi was just a general from a poor family with not much background. Even if he was offended, it would not be a big deal for these playboys with strong backgrounds.

If it were someone with a powerful background, the emperor’s uncle would definitely refuse without hesitation.

"We can do this." He waved to his uncle.

The emperor's uncle also moved closer to listen.

Soon the two of them burst into a thieving laugh.

The emperor's uncle was unwilling to break his principles, so he didn't care about other things.

Xi Rui didn't want to ask him to do all the work and take risks alone, so he agreed to leave the previous tasks to him.

Xiao Yuanshi's brother-in-law despised him, and his brother-in-law's wife plotted against him, making it impossible for him to marry a good wife.

Then there's nothing wrong with him getting it back from Xiao Yuanshi, the guy who supports the other party.

Who made Xiao Yuanshi marry such a disaster?

Well, when I think about it this way, that psychological burden is gone.
